why is the printed result of
basket = {'apple', 'orange', 'apple', 'pear', 'orange', 'banana'}
print(basket)
{'orange', 'banana', 'pear', 'apple'}
in the sequence given?
A set is not ordered and eliminates duplicate elements. So the output is
random in terms of the order and only shows each single item once...
Correct me if I'm wrong :-)
